So, a few observations about Link in these screenshots. Sorry if I'm a bit of a bore or if this stuff has already been brought up!
With an orange shirt, black belt and lack of colour in his eyes, this is clearly
.
Due to the lighting/shading/whatever, we can fully see Link’s nose, which I think looks a bit unsightly at the moment. In the Gamecube version of Wind Waker, Link’s nose probably wouldn’t be visible in that shade.
Link’s most important features of his character design are his large eyes and handsome eyebrows. These allow him to really show off his emotions. In both the Gamecube and DS games, these were drawn above the hair at all times, but this isn’t the case in these screenshots, probably because the character models were just dumped into the scene to see how they looked.
Also important in regards to Link’s eyes is that they were largely unaffected by lighting. Even in the dark, the whites of his eyes would always remain white.
The screenshots are a work in progress of course. Given how important Link's eyes are to his design though, I'd imagine they're gonna get tweaked to match how they originally looked. Though I guess I'm playing a dangerous game, assuming things like that, heh.
Still, I think he would look much better!
Anyway, I look forward to seeing just how this remake will look in motion!
Ah, I... I need to go play it again!
